Nice ... thanks for posting.

I am wondering though, why on earth someone would destroy the looks of such a bike with a flame paint job.

It's fugly enough that the cart is probably an enhancement.
Definately a grocery getter, but probably get ridden plenty, which is still better than an overchromed trailer queen.

Oh yeah that tank is even worse than the neglected pipes and mismatched bags. However I believe with the right ownership she could look sexy again.

I would probably paint the tank if it was mine, but looks like it's clocking up the miles just fine.
